About this house rental
Enjoy beachside life at Seascape, our spacious and well-appointed seaside getaway that is close to all that Newport has to offer. Seascape is a short walk to the private end of Newport’s popular First Beach (also called Easton's Beach), and also close to the other premier beaches in the area second, third beach and Peabody beach. It is a perfect location for an active vacation of surfing, paddle boarding, boating and biking or a more relaxing time of sunning on the beach and walking on the beach for beautiful sunsets. We are within walking distance of several restaurants with a wide variety of cuisine. A short bike ride brings you into downtown Newport and the shopping, dining and nightlife for which it is famous.
This unique property is located in Renfrew Park, a private neighborhood of stately Victorian mansions spread around a 5 acre private park which were built during Newport’s Gilded Age as summer getaways for New York’s wealthy social class. Seascape sits at the top of the hill overlooking the park and commanding sweeping views of the beach, ocean, sunsets and the Cliff Walk mansions beyond. Enjoy a cool drink in the shade of the large and comfortably furnished wrap-around, covered front porch. Watch the sunset from the second floor porch or survey the beach by moonlight from the porch off of the third floor master suite.
The fully equipped kitchen is perfect for cooking a gourmet meal. We have everything you could need for a beach gathering from charming serving plates to pots to boil lobster. The dining room seats twelve at a gorgeous custom made table. Relax in the spacious and private backyard with beautiful landscaping. Barbeque at the outdoor kitchen with it’s powerful grill and relax in the backyard lounge or dining area. Your kids can play on the playset or play lawn games.
Your group can expand and relax in the five large bedrooms plus a den with a futon bed. The house is completely renovated and modern while maintaining the historical charm and details of its Gilded Age origin. Three of the bedrooms have en suite full baths and there are 4 full and one half bath in total over the 3,800 square foot house. The crown jewel is the master suite which occupies the whole third floor of the home. Enjoy the sweeping views of water and sand while lounging in front of the wall of picture windows or have a glass of wine at sunset from your private balcony. The other spacious bedrooms are all tastefully appointed and comfortable with good sleeping capacity.

The owner was amazing with responding to any questions we had about the property. The house is beautiful and the front porch was so nice. We especially loved the backyard for the kids. Would definitely come back. Just loved the views and neighborhood.

Perfect location to explore Newport and the surrounding area and a great house to spend time in admiring the bay
2.0 / 5.0
The house itself could not have been more beautiful and the proximity to the beach and views are incredible. We overall had a great stay, however, you should be warned that the neighbors are clearly mad about living next to a VRBO property and will literally YELL at you and your guests for everything. I chose to get ready here for my wedding, and when the limo pulled up to take me to the venue, the neighbors were outside within seconds telling me that the limo needed to move immediately and we couldn't park on the street at all (meanwhile there were several other cars parked outside of houses). On a separate occasion, one neighbor quite literally threatened my uncle saying that he is a federal agent and we had better "watch out"... which was again totally unwarranted as we never had more than 11 people staying over, never stayed up past 10 PM, never played music and never had more than 2 people outside at the same time. Ultimately we got the sense that they are so upset that this is a VRBO property that they will complain about everything and anything, which does make for some difficult interactions.
TLDR: Beautiful house, great location, but be prepared for MULTIPLE, unwarranted and unpleasant interactions with the neighbors

This house was absolutely perfect for my Family and a couple friends. It was clean, spacious and decorated beautifully. The location was right in the middle of where we needed to be.
Overall, just a wonderful home and the owner was a piece of cake to work with!
4.0 / 5.0
The house was very nice with a nice yard and great front porch. The third floor suite was huge with nice views! There were 6 adults & 4 kids- all very comfortable. Nice neighborhood park right across from the house. Beach and places to eat all very close by. There was red algae on part of Eastons so second beach day we went to First Beach. Very unpleasant neighbor next door felt we were too loud playing wiffle ball with the children ( 2 7 yr olds, a 3 yr old and almost 2 year old) at 7:30-7:45 pm on our second night…….Owner addressed this situation which we appreciated. We all agreed that despite this we would recommend this property.

Our family had an amazing stay! The house was clean, beautifully decorated and we had more than enough room for our 10 guests. 5 adults, 5 kids. The outdoor spaces were lovely. Check in and communication with Teal was super easy. The home was walkable to restaurants, coffee shop, ice cream shop, beach, etc. The closest (and walkable) beach had a lot of red algae this time of year (1st Beach). We spent our days at 2nd Beach which was gorgeous and just a mile or so drive away. We are already looking to plan a return visit next year!

I am a picky and discerning renter, so concerned about cleanliness, location, safety, amenities, etc. This home did not disappoint and was near perfect for our adult children, 2 toddlers and an infant -having met my expectations and hope. While we rented off season over Thanksgiving, we did not take advantage of proximity to beach as much as one would in season, but with our fantastic November weather, we did stroll down to the beach, walked the Cliff walk, enjoyed the Breakers outdoor Christmas lights show, some of us toured mansions and other Newport spots as all is a short drive away. The house had beds and baths for all, a nice gathering space and a yard to play in. This is a home that feels like one’s own! Thank you!

This house is a dream! It’s clean, beautifully designed and decorated and has a great flow. The views are breathtaking! Short walk to the beach and cliff walks.
The owner was so easy to work with and very accommodating. Strongly recommend this house!

My family stayed here for our daughter’s wedding and they loved it! The proximity to the beach was great and the backyard outdoor play area for the little ones was perfect. They enjoyed having morning coffee on the porch and sunsets on the balcony! Highly recommend!

This house was absolutely beautiful. In a neighborhood that has very nice homes and the location is perfect for a family to use the beach. Owners were very responsive and great to deal with. Would highly recommend if looking for a beautiful place to stay in a great neighborhood.

Great vacation home. True to description on VRBO. Very clean. Owner was very quick to respond to questions and helpful. Perfect location to visit the beaches and downtown Newport. We would definitely stay again.
5.0 / 5.0
Absolutely wonderful time at Seascapes! Great location - loaded up the strollers and buggy and a short walk to the beach where we spent four or five hours almost every day. We took all the kids to the Roger Williams Park Zoo one afternoon and the seven-year old to Ryan Family Arcade in Newport late one day and caught a baseball game under the lights. Another evening, everyone walked down to Clementine's for their delicious home-made ice cream.
With five grandkids under the age of seven, there was a great backyard and playhouse for them when we weren't at the beach.
The house itself is all that it was described in the listing - great size rooms, plenty of beds and everything you would need to make family meals.
Our host, Teal Aroy, was extremely helpful answering all of my questions prior to our visit. Thank you, Teal, for sharing your home and for all the memories my family will have of this past week in Middletown.

Beyond Perfect Beach Getaway!
Seascape delivered beyond what was described online. Beautiful and spacious indoor and outdoor entertainment areas where our family could comfortably gather with two toddlers. Location allowed us to access beaches by walking or a short car ride and easily get into Newport. Teal was responsive and very helpful with any questions we had. Just outstanding all the way around!
